From $0 to $12K Per Night: Building Australia's Luxury Empire: Tom Ormerod
Tom Ormerod built Australia's premier luxury accommodation platform Luxico from a simple frustration: picking up keys from fish and chip shops for million-dollar homes. Now averaging $12,000 per booking, his company serves billionaires, celebrities, and ultra-wealthy clients with wild requests ranging from grand pianos to exotic animals delivered at a moment's notice.
In this episode, Tom reveals the behind-the-scenes reality of working with billionaires, the crushing moment his TV show got dropped, and how he's using personal branding to scale internationally. He also breaks down the current challenges facing Australia's short-term rental industry, including the 7.5% Victorian tax that's reshaping the market. Plus, his expansion plans with "Stay Longer" platform and why he believes luxury hospitality is the ultimate relationship business.
